A Starless Night

Load Full StoryNext Chapter

The moon slowly crawled crossed the vast abyss of the night sky, not a single star could be seen even the moon glowed a weaker silver than usual. Luna dipped her head down as her duty as princess of the moon ended, her muscles were silently plotting a revenge plan to make her sore tomorrow, and was soon engulfed by her wandering thoughts.

Most of them were memories off the aristocrats that acted as if she was the plague, she tried to meet new ponies and was found a town full of new friends. But even after her nightmare night appearance she was still feared and shunned by many ponys, she wanted to have somepony to talk to or, a pet, or something other than Oliver!

She quietly glared at the rock with two seeds attached to its face to represent eyes ,and a robin mare hat with a yellow feather on the top, great present Tia. She sighed laying down on the soft bed of moss in her special garden, to many it was a horrible garden, that was under kept and overrun with many types of mosses and vines.

But they never saw the true wonders of the garden, beneath the thick layers of dense vines and moss was a clearing, it had a plethora of flowers, fruit trees and a small crystal clear pool of water that glimmered a pale silver in the moonlight. The garden was special to Luna not only for its beautiful core, but for its thriving life that seemed to flood through the whole garden.

She sighed again rolling onto her back so she could look at the starless night, the starless night she allowed, the starless night she made. She rolled back onto her belly staring into her reflection in the pool of water, she allowed a single tear to drip down her face, and it landed in the pond creating a small ripple effect that blurred Luna`s image.

She cried, she hated herself and what was she turning into, a sad pathetic mare with a horrible excuse to be sad. She hated herself more when she stopped adding the stars, she couldn’t make herself do it, it hurt to put up the stars, and not to. And nopony has complained about the lack of stars so for now, she just laid there in the moss under the starless sky.

Wondering how it all came to this.
